What you described seems correct: two dbus_message_iter_append_basic. 
Since that is not working, it would seem the error is somewhere else. Can 
you confirm with dbus-monitor that only a single parameter is sent?

If you can, we'd need to see the rest of the marshalling code to find out 
what's wrong. If you can't, then the bug is on the receiving 
applications.
